Webuser Forums: Making an icon from the euro sign

I think I know what you mean.
However, have you considered importing a .png image such as this . . . >>

<< . . . then after creating your Macro, changing the icon to something like the one I have shown.

I created 'your Macro' and produced this below with the new assigned button:

I have never used OpenOffice before and downloaded it to try this method for you. It maybe long winded, but it works:

Firstly, Right click and Save the Euro button image I have showed in this post to your Desktop.

OpenOffice.org Writer > Tools > Macros > Record Macro > Start recording >Press the Ctrl + Alt + 4 keys together > Stop recording.

Name the Macro say 'Euro' > Save

Now go back to Tools > Macros > Organise Macros > OpenOffice.org basic > Expand 'My Macros' > Module 1 > Euro (right pane) > Assign > Toolbar content > Add > Category > Scroll down to OpenOffice.org Macros > Expand till you see 'My Macros' > Module 1 > Euro (right pane) > Add

You should have Button on the Toolbar with the wording 'Euro' on it.
Now go to View > Toolbars > Customize > In Toolbar content, Highlight 'Euro' > Modify > Change Icon > Import > Navigate to Desktop > Select the Pasted 'Euro' .png file > Open > Highlight the new Icon > OK/OK

The new Euro button appears in the Toolbar for you to use when you require.

Hope this helps.
